Because he knew that the painting was a facsimile, Li Yi was identifying the handwriting on the frontispiece at the beginning, but the result of the identification made him suspicious. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Wang Hui has a lot of hand-me-down works, and he has seen a few, so he ruled out the possibility that this is Wang Hui's copy at the beginning. Zou Zhilin's hand-me-down works are very few, and he has not seen them, so naturally he is impossible to identify. But the strange thing is that the handwriting on this painting feels a little familiar to him, and it doesn't seem to be Zou Zhilin's handwriting.

Just when he was puzzled, Tan Moxuan's reminder made him suddenly realize that since this version was neither Wang Hui's nor Zou Zhilin's, then this doubt about handwriting could be solved.

He confirmed the handwriting on the inscription again, looked at the picture carefully, nodded, and said in a low voice:

"This should be copied by Dong Qichang."

"Dong Qichang?"

Tan Moxuan repeated it in a low voice, nodded and said:

"When you say that, I look a little like Dong Qichang's handwriting. Moreover, judging from the inheritance of the authentic work of this painting, Dong Qichang did collect it. ”

"Well, after the authentic work of "Fuchun Mountain Residence" was lost from Shen Zhou's hands, it was successively passed through the hands of Fan Shun, Tan Zhiyi, Dong Qichang, Wu Zhengzhi and others, and finally passed to Wu Hongyu's hands......"

Li Yi opened the spirit card as he spoke, a cool air flashed, and the spirit card gave the identification conclusion, this painting is indeed Dong Qichang's handiwork!

Compared with Zhang Hong, the backbone of the Wumen School of painting in the late Ming Dynasty, and his contemporary, Dong Qichang, as an outstanding representative of the "Huating School", is at least far greater than him in fame. Normally, the value of this facsimile should also be higher than Zhang Hong's version, and Li Yi knew that he had picked up the treasure again this time.

After putting the painting away, Li Yi took a thick painting scroll, if he didn't guess wrong, this should be the "Yunlan Ethereal Scroll" with a length of more than 3 meters for Dong Qichang.

This is interesting, if this is also a genuine work, then, a real work imitating Huang Gongwang, a real work of his own, and both paintings are the kind of masterpieces, when the time comes to hang together on display, it should be able to attract the attention of many people.

Because he had just seen an authentic painting of Dong Qichang, so soon, Li Yi confirmed the authenticity of this painting, this painting is also a genuine painting, and in terms of collection value, it is obviously above that imitation.

Li Yi remembered that there should be a work by Wang Hui among the remaining ancient paintings, and an anonymous but similar to Li Tang's "Summer in the Lotus Pond". What's more, in the rare books, there seems to be a fragment of the "Vimala Sutra Variations" from the Tang Dynasty from the Dunhuang Canon, which is also a cultural relic that can be called a national treasure......

One, two, three...... Authenticity, authenticity, imitation......

Soon, Li Yi finished reading a total of 48 paintings and calligraphy, leaving only Wang Hui's work and the anonymous Song painting.

"This imitation of Xu Daoning's "Visiting Friends in Xishan" should be genuine, right? You see that there are not only the seals of Wang Huizhi and Shi Guzi, but also the collection and appreciation seals of Lu Shihua of Huaiyan Pavilion, which should also be included in the "Catalogue of Calligraphy and Painting Seen by Wu Yue", right? ”

Tan Moxuan also has a certain appreciation of calligraphy and painting, especially in recent years, the value of the works of Qing Dynasty painters led by Wang Hui has been rising, not only his own "Tang Poetry Intent" has been auctioned for 126.5 million, but even the works of Yun Shouping, Wang Shimin and others who are as famous as him have also hit new highs. Among them, Wang Shimin's "Imitation of Landscapes" has also been auctioned for 121 million yuan recently, which is not inferior to the price.

The popularity of the market will naturally attract the attention of appraisers, although Tan Moxuan's main focus is on jade miscellaneous, but because of the nature of the pawnshop's work, he has also worked ancient calligraphy and painting.

"The pen is as strong as Jingguan, and the white books are always idle. The sheep are not allowed to beg for the West Villa, and the painting is divided into the old streams and mountains. Bingchen autumn, imitating Xu Daoning. Haiyu Shiguzi Wang Hui. ”

Li Yi slowly read the inscription on the painting and nodded, yes, this painting is indeed a genuine painting. As for whether Lu Shihua's "Catalogue of Calligraphy and Painting Seen by Wu Yue" is included, I don't know, but since there is Lu Shihua's appreciation seal, it should be able to find its inheritance.

"It's not easy, although the calligraphy and painting market is a little chaotic now, all the famous ancient paintings that can be determined to be genuine are basically tens of millions of large, and this painting is almost more than 50 million, right?"

"That's right, although the price of most of Wang Hui's works on auction is around 5 million, but the time when those works were sold is some time ago, and secondly, it is also because the truth is not clear. Dong Qichang's works are the same, the current ancient paintings, I can't afford them! ”

Li Yi sighed with emotion, but what he saw so far was worth more than his Monet's "Water Lilies". But there is a suspected work of Li Tang in the back, as well as a Dunhuang collection of scriptures in the Tang Dynasty, and more than 30 rare books.

He sighed as he opened the Song painting. Although the author of this painting has not been determined, it can be judged from the paper that it is definitely a Song painting, and even if it is not identified as a famous work at that time, its value will definitely not be much inferior to this work of Wang Hui.

"Scraping iron? Is this the work of Secret Gate Liu? ”

Secret door Liu is the nickname of Liu Songnian, one of the "four masters of the Southern Song Dynasty", because he lives in Qiantang Qingbo Gate, so he has the name of Liu Qingbo, and Qingbo Gate has another "secret door", so the nickname is called "Secret Gate Liu".

Liu Songnian, Li Tang, Ma Yuan, and Xia Gui are collectively known as the "Four Great Masters of the Southern Song Dynasty", and his painting style is relatively similar because of his teaching of Li Tang.

However, in landscape painting, Liu Songnian's style is closer to Dong Yuan and Juran, the painting style is beautiful and rigorous, the coloring is beautiful and elegant, and it is also known as "small landscape landscape" because of the theme of many garden and small scenes.

Li Yi stared at this work for a while, and recognized that the method used by the painter was not like Li Tang's usual axe splitting, but more like Liu Songnian's scraping iron, and couldn't help frowning and opened the spirit card.

Sure enough, this painting is a "Lotus Pond Picture of West Lake" made by Liu Songnian in imitation of Li Tang's "Summer Picture", which is roughly similar in composition and brushwork, but the painting style is more soft and beautiful.

After reading the ancient paintings, the two of them went through the 32 ancient books that Luo Guofu brought over, in addition to the fragments of the Tang Dynasty's "Vimala Sutra Variations", Li Yi unexpectedly found a set of Ming Dynasty famous engraving and printing artist Ling Mengchu's engraved "Yu Shi Mingyan", which is another extremely collectible ancient book.

In terms of market value, there is no way to compare the Ming and Song engravings, but there are exceptions. One is the older and less circulated, and the other is the inner house engraving, that is, the royal engraving, or the engraving of celebrities.

Although there is still a certain gap between the value of this kind of Ming carved ancient books and the Song carved books, the value of the well-preserved fine books is already comparable to that of ordinary Song carved books.

In Li Yi's view, this set of Ming engravings of "Yu Shi Mingyan" is such an ancient book, because its engraver Ling Mengchu is not only a famous engraving and printing artist, but also a famous writer and novelist in the Ming Dynasty. His books "The Surprise of the First Moment of Shooting" and "The Surprise of the Second Moment of Shooting" and Feng Menglong's "Yu Shi Mingyan", "Warning World Tongyan" and "Xingshi Hengyan" are collectively known as "Three Words and Two Beats", which are representative works of classical Chinese short stories.

With this origin in it, the value of this set of Ming engravings can be imagined.

"Rogov, you have these things very good, I want to keep them all, you can make a price."

"All good?"

Rogov's eyes rolled twice, and there was an underbeat expression on his face,

"Since the boss thinks they're all good, it shouldn't be a problem for me to exchange them for your "Water Lilies", right?"

Li Yi was stunned, the value of these things has far exceeded the value of the "Water Lilies", and with Luo Gov's shrewdness, he should not be unaware of this. But even so, he only asked for an exchange of "Water Lilies", is this a show of loyalty to himself?

However, before he could figure it out, Rogov continued:

"Boss, I know that exchanging these things for your "Water Lilies" may not be enough, but you see, although this "Vimala Sutra Variations" is only a fragment, according to the division standards of your Chinese cultural relics, it should at least be able to be classified as a first-class cultural relic, and this Song painting, although it is an anonymous work, but after all, it is a Song painting, a work from nearly a thousand years ago, its value should not be low, right? There are also these two, one Dong Qichang and one Wang Hui......"

Seeing Rogov's eagerness to explain, Li Yi understood that this guy didn't really realize the value of his things at all. But this can't be blamed on him, the dating and authenticity of calligraphy and painting works are more difficult, these are he, replaced by other Chinese appraisers, I don't know how many will be classified as controversial works, not to mention that he is still a completely crooked nut.

"Okay, you don't need to say it, since you have your eye on that "Water Lily", then do it. It's just that when you go to see François tomorrow, you'll have to work harder! ”

"Boss, don't worry, since you have taken out all the "Sunset", I will definitely be able to exchange all the things you fancy for you!"

Seeing that Luo Guofu slapped his chest loudly, Li Yi shook his head with a smile. This guy, who didn't know that it was this deal, not only spit out all the money he had earned from him before, but even returned the commission for tomorrow's transaction in advance.

However, he is not a cheat on him, because according to his own understanding, the value of these works is indeed not as good as a "Water Lily", so who is not cheap? (To be continued.) )
